33
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:18,480
you haven't, please do so now. Please be

please speak loudly and clearly into the

microphone.

37
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,320
Okay.

38
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:53,120
Can you hear me now? Oh, that's a
>> That's great. Thank you.

39
00:09:49,279 --> 00:10:03,360
» Okay. My name is Jim Morgan. I live at
401 Mound Street and um I'm here to talk

40
00:09:58,399 --> 00:10:09,120
about the proposed zoning change at 104
East 2nd Street.

41
00:10:05,519 --> 00:10:14,320
I thought that we were that the council
would vote on this tonight. I found out

42
00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:19,279
that they're not, but since I have some
neighbors here, I figured I would go

43
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:24,399
ahead and speak about it tonight, even
though it'll be voted on later.

44
00:10:21,839 --> 00:10:30,399
Um,
I've been a builder

45
00:10:27,279 --> 00:10:35,839
for almost 50 years.
Um,

46
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:40,880
and I have been involved with many
zoning meetings,

47
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:49,440
a couple in Hebrin, but mostly in
townships in Licking County, some in

48
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:56,240
Fairfield County and uh some in
uh a couple other counties around. Uh

49
00:10:53,279 --> 00:11:04,480
but
the um the zoning change proposed for

50
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:09,600
this property is to change
a residential

51
00:11:07,279 --> 00:11:18,480
property into a general commercial
property. It's in our neighborhood

52
00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:25,200
and um I've heard it said that even that
the uh zoning board

53
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:31,360
uh recommend that the change be made,
which I was floored by, but

54
00:11:29,680 --> 00:11:36,800
I heard it said that the reason that
they might consider changing it to

55
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:43,519
commercial is because it is adjacent to
another commercial property. Well,

56
00:11:39,279 --> 00:11:49,279
that's not exactly true. Across Second
Street, there's a commercial property

57
00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:58,399
that has been there
for um forever. It's bordering 79.

58
00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:03,680
And
there are boundaries, of course, with

59
00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:09,920
all zoning maps. That just happens to be
the boundary there on Second Street

60
00:12:05,519 --> 00:12:15,760
between it and and this property.
If if it were

61
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:19,279
if it were the thinking that because it
borders another commercial property, we

62
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:26,240
might as well change this one. Well, if
that's the case, then

63
00:12:23,680 --> 00:12:29,560
if you approve that zoning change, then
why can't

64
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:38,120
and across the street from it come in
the next day and apply for change there.

65
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,120
Also

66
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:50,480
the the main
reason that I am opposed

67
00:12:48,079 --> 00:12:57,240
my neighborhood
is that

68
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:57,240
is a big deal. You change some

69
00:12:57,279 --> 00:13:04,639
you have made it
So that whatever is listed

70
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:08,399
» I'm sorry. We're gonna I'm so sorry.
We're just going to um update the

71
00:13:06,399 --> 00:13:11,279
battery so that we can continue to hear
you.

72
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:15,240
» Microphone.
>> Yeah. Oh, so sorry.

73
00:13:20,639 --> 00:13:28,800
» Can you hear me now?
>> Thank you.

74
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:33,920
» Okay, there. Got to find the mic. Um,
the reason that I am opposed and many of

75
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:38,720
my uh neighbors are opposed to it is
because once you change the zoning that

76
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:45,279
allows the person that owns that
property to use it for whatever is

77
00:13:42,399 --> 00:13:51,600
listed or in that particular
classification.

78
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:57,680
And um you once you once it's changed to
that, you really don't have the option

79
00:13:53,360 --> 00:14:02,800
as a council or anyone here
to to say we don't like what you're

80
00:14:01,279 --> 00:14:12,839
proposing, so we're going to turn it
down. Well, I guess you can say that,

81
00:14:06,079 --> 00:14:12,839
but there is an appeals process. And if

82
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:19,519
if I think that that if I own that
property and I think that the business

83
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:23,120
that I want to run there falls within
the jurisdiction that the the

84
00:14:21,519 --> 00:14:29,680
requirements and the restrictions and
everything of that classification and

85
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:34,000
you say I can't do it, then I can go to
the Licking County Court of Common

86
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:39,920
Please and I'm going to put my case
before a judge. The judge would then

87
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:47,600
look at the
uh the proposal and if he thinks that

88
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:53,440
that is listed in that classification
then I have the right to do that. And if

89
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:58,079
if for instance you wouldn't agree with
that judge and say I think we're right

90
00:14:55,920 --> 00:15:03,199
well you can appeal it also to the state
of Ohio just as I could all the way to

91
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:06,079
the state of Ohio. And you say well
that's pretty ridiculous. I don't think

92
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,959
that's going to happen on this lot.
Well, it probably isn't,

93
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:12,160
» Mr. Morgan.
>> Yes.

94
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:15,160
» So, sorry. We're at five minutes.
>> Uh,

95
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:37,279
» Kathy Morgan, 401 Mound Street.
>> Thank you. I just wanted to add that we

96
00:15:33,199 --> 00:15:45,199
took a petition around our neighborhood.
We have 26 signatures.

97
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:49,519
Every property around this property
voted no. Hands down. There were two

98
00:15:47,839 --> 00:15:56,880
people that weren't at home. I could
have went on down the street, across the

99
00:15:52,720 --> 00:16:02,560
street, wherever. everyone on that wants
everyone we approached said absolutely

100
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:07,320
not just wanted to add that. Thank you.
>> Thank you.

101
00:16:04,079 --> 00:16:07,320
» Thank you.

102
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:23,440
Hello, my name is Mark Wahburn. I live
at 1125 Lake Forest Drive. I'm here

103
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:28,160
about bike safety and how Hebrin
investigates, I guess. Um, good evening

104
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:34,160
members of village council and thank you
for allowing me to uh the opportunity to

105
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:38,079
speak. We are here tonight to ask the
village to consider taking a more

106
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:43,040
proactive approach to bicycle safety and
awareness of Ohio's bicycle laws in our

107
00:16:40,399 --> 00:16:49,920
community. This is an issue that is very
personal to me, to my wife. I'm an avid

108
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:54,720
bicyclist and like many cyclists in our
areas, I share our local roads with

109
00:16:51,759 --> 00:17:00,480
cars, trucks, commercial vehicles, and
most motorists are are courteous and

110
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:05,360
careful when approaching a cyclist.
Unfortunately, it only takes one driver

111
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:12,160
who is unaware of the law, who chooses
not to follow it for the consequences to

112
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:17,439
be devastating. In 2024, there was more
than 1,100 cyclists killed in traffic

113
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:26,400
crashes across the United States. Here
in Ohio, we have 24 one I know of who

114
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:31,679
lost their lives in 2024. I'm only
giving you the 2024 stats because the

115
00:17:28,319 --> 00:17:35,760
2025 stats have not yet been released.
Those aren't simply statistics. They

116
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:41,039
represents people who went out for a
bicycle ride and never came home to

117
00:17:37,919 --> 00:17:48,400
their families. Ohio law is very clear
regarding vehicles passing vehicles.

118
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:52,640
Under Ohio Revised Code section 4511.27,
3 ft or greater is considered a safe

119
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:56,559
passing distance when a motor vehicle
passes a bicycle. Yet, we

120
00:17:54,867 --> 00:18:02,559
[clears throat] believe many drivers
simply do not know this law.

121
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:07,200
That is why we would or I would like the
village to consider several uh

122
00:18:05,120 --> 00:18:11,679
relatively simple steps that could make
a meaningful difference. First, we'd

123
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:16,080
like to see seasonal bicycle safety
awareness efforts, particularly in the

124
00:18:13,679 --> 00:18:20,480
spring and summer when significantly
more cyclists are on the road.

125
00:18:18,799 --> 00:18:25,440
information about Ohio's three-foot
passing law and reminder that bicycles

126
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:30,640
have the legal right to use the roadway
and can and could be shared through the

127
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:34,480
village website, social media, news
webs, and others communic

128
00:18:32,559 --> 00:18:38,240
communications.
Second, we would like the village to

129
00:18:35,919 --> 00:18:42,320
consider additional road signage
reminding motorists to share the road

130
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:47,440
and to provide at least three feet when
passing a cyclist. A sign is a small

131
00:18:45,360 --> 00:18:51,200
investment, but seeing that reminder
while actually driving on the road where

132
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:56,559
cyclists are present can have an
immediate impact. Third, we are asking

133
00:18:54,640 --> 00:19:01,440
for education and appropriate
enforcement by law. Education is

134
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:06,240
important, but laws intended to protect
cyclists also need to be taken seriously

135
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:11,120
when they are violated. A warning,
traffic stop, or citation doesn't just

136
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:16,240
address the driver's behavior, it can
prevent the next dangerous encounter.

137
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:21,360
Unfortunately, I re recently experienced
I was involved in one of these reasons

138
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:26,080
we are here tonight.
On July 31st, I was riding my bicycle on

139
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:31,200
High Street when a semi-tra approached
me from behind. I have all the pictures

140
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:35,440
and everything. So, I'll show you that
with you. The semi passed me in a

141
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:40,640
dangerous close distance, leaving me
with little room to react and putting me

142
00:19:37,919 --> 00:19:44,320
in a serious risk of being struck. The
incident was captured on a video and I

143
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:49,120
have some pictures from the video that I
can share. I was not interfering with

144
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:54,480
traffic or writing unpredictability.
I was using the road rate as permanent

145
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:57,600
by permitted by Ohio law.
The danger resulted from a vehicle

146
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:02,320
passing too close and failing to provide
the required safe distance. After the

147
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:07,280
incident, I reported it to officer Zack
Hampton of the Hein Police and provided

148
00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:11,520
video and photo evidence.
We were told we would get look into it

149
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:15,200
and get back to us. However, not hearing
back from him for several days. I

150
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:20,080
stopped by the police department to get
an update and was told by the officer

151
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:24,880
Hampton that the that he and another
officer reviewed the video and said the

152
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:28,720
semi had provided me with ample room. I
left frustrated because I asked him how

153
00:20:26,799 --> 00:20:34,480
he investigated it and that's how he did
it. Sharing the video of photos of

154
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:39,520
incidents to chief department to Chief
Welsh of the Hein Police Department

155
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:43,520
makes made him aware of the situation
sharing the video and photos of the

156
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:48,080
incident. Chief Welsh responded back to
the case and signed it back to Officer

157
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:54,000
Hampton with Lieutenant Carson
overseeing the process. On August 7th,

158
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:58,240
Hampton shared via mail email. The
incident will be reviewed by the law

159
00:20:56,159 --> 00:21:03,679
director's office on Monday and the
turnaround time should be within a few

160
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:07,679
days. On August 14th, I received another
email from Officer Hampton stating that

161
00:21:05,919 --> 00:21:11,360
he had not received any response from
the director's office. That was the last

162
00:21:09,919 --> 00:21:16,159
communication I have received in the
matter. What was especially concerning

163
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:20,640
to us was not only the incident itself,
but the lack of meaningful followup

164
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:25,360
after it was reported to the Hein
police. We understand that police

165
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:29,200
departments compete prior competing
priorities and limit resources. We are

166
00:21:27,360 --> 00:21:33,120
not here to criticize the individual
officer. We are asking the reports

167
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:37,200
involving dangerous intersections
between vehicles and vulnerable road use

168
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:44,679
users to be taken seriously.
>> Mark, I'm so sorry.

169
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:44,679
» Do you want to finish it? Thank you.

170
00:21:46,559 --> 00:21:56,480
» Um, Rita Walburn, 11:25 Lake Forest
Drive. Um let's see

171
00:21:54,240 --> 00:22:00,480
see where he left off. Okay.
Particularly when video or other

172
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:05,440
evidence is available.
Cyclists are someone's husband or wife,

173
00:22:03,039 --> 00:22:09,200
someone's son or daughter, someone's
parent, grandparent, friend, or

174
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:13,840
neighbor. When a vehicle weighing
several thousand pounds passes a person

175
00:22:11,120 --> 00:22:18,640
on a bicycle with only inches to spare,
the cyclist has virtually no protection

176
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:22,799
if something goes wrong. You don't want
it to take a serious injury or a death

177
00:22:21,039 --> 00:22:28,000
in the community before this issue
receives attention. We are asking the

178
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:31,840
village of Hebrin to be proactive and we
respectively ask council, the village

179
00:22:30,159 --> 00:22:36,080
administration, and the Heburn Police
Department to consider working together

180
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:40,880
on a bicycle safety initiative that
includes seasonal public awareness,

181
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:45,280
appropriate road signage, education
about Ohio's three-foot passing law, and

182
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:50,159
consistent enforcement when dangerous
violations occur. These are reasonable,

183
00:22:48,159 --> 00:22:54,720
achievable, achievable steps that could
make our roads safer for everyone. Our

184
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:59,679
goal isn't to create a divide between
motorists and cyclists. Most cyclists

185
00:22:57,039 --> 00:23:04,159
are motorists, too. Our goal is to
simply for everyone who leaves their

186
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:09,360
home, whether behind a steering wheel,
on a bicycle, or on foot, to have the

187
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:13,120
opportunity to return home safely. Thank
you for your time and consideration with

188
00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:16,640
this request.
and we do have some things that we could

189
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:24,360
share with you if you you're interested.
>> Thank you so much. Uh the photos, we can

190
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:24,360
pass them along. Okay, thank you.

191
00:23:31,360 --> 00:23:39,440
» And I do want to actually I'm going to
take just a couple seconds, Mike. Um I

192
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:43,919
just want to acknowledge that I did
receive an email from you. I know you've

193
00:23:41,360 --> 00:23:48,880
been in correspondence. um with village
administrator Mesner. Um also I know

194
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:53,440
Chief is planning on giving you an
update. You may have heard a little bit

195
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:57,760
about some water last week and so we
have been a little

196
00:23:54,960 --> 00:24:02,240
» Yeah, I just want to acknowledge that we
absolutely Yes, absolutely. But I just

197
00:24:00,799 --> 00:24:07,799
want to acknowledge that you have
reached out and I do appreciate that.

198
00:24:04,559 --> 00:24:07,799
Thank you.

199
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:18,559
Please. Thank you.
>> Good evening, mayor and members of the

200
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:24,720
council. My name is Mike McMarland. I
live at 133 Hamilton Avenue. I've been a

201
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:30,799
resident of Hein for more than 60 years.
Uh this evening I rise and I'm going to

202
00:24:28,159 --> 00:24:35,120
read my remarks which I could speak ex
extemporaneously

203
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:38,640
but uh in trying to be respectful of the
fivem minute cut off uh I'm going to

204
00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:45,360
read them and I'll probably read them
quickly. Uh I rise this evening in

205
00:24:41,679 --> 00:24:49,919
opposition to Hein ordinance 06-26
which was passed by the Hein Village

206
00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:53,520
Council on the 4th of May 2026.
That ordinance was to establish a

207
00:24:51,679 --> 00:24:59,919
special revenue fund for the human
landing incentive district tax increment

208
00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:05,840
financing program. We all know that the
tax or otherwise known as tiff was

209
00:25:03,120 --> 00:25:13,039
intended to help uh small v or
municipalities not necessarily small to

210
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:18,720
uh bring housing to their communities
that otherwise might not uh be coming.

211
00:25:16,559 --> 00:25:23,120
The state law defines three basic
requirements that should exist for the

212
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:27,600
municipality to implement a tiff. The
first is that the area defined

213
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:33,360
geographically is currently blighted or
heavily tending towards being blighted.

214
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:39,360
The statutory definition is economically
stagnant or conservation needy. Given

215
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:43,919
that the property was a farm field, it
does not meet that requirement.

216
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:50,880
The second requirement is called the but
for test which is but for tiff being

217
00:25:47,919 --> 00:25:55,679
instituted this project could not be
built. The developer couldn't afford to

218
00:25:52,880 --> 00:26:00,080
build it. This requires demonstrating
that private development or economic

219
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:03,520
revitalization in the area would not
occur without the creation of the tiff

220
00:26:02,159 --> 00:26:08,960
district and the resulting public
investment. Because MI Homes has not

221
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:13,600
requested any public investment and will
install all infrastructure for the Hein

222
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:18,960
Landing project at its own expense, the
Hein project appears to fail this test.

223
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:24,240
Also, the third requirement is a public
infrastructure plan which delineates

224
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:29,039
specific public improvements. such as
roads, utilities, or facilities that

225
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:34,960
will directly serve the benefit parcels
within the district. It appears this

226
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:40,400
also fails the test. The state tiff law
allows the village to exempt incremental

227
00:26:37,279 --> 00:26:46,640
taxable property values from specific
uses voted by the taxpayers and redirect

228
00:26:43,360 --> 00:26:50,799
those payments to the village tiff fund.
In the case of Licking County and Hein,

229
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:56,240
our voted property taxes provide funding
for the schools, fire and EMS, municipal

230
00:26:54,400 --> 00:27:00,880
and county services, the vocational
school, developmental disability,

231
00:26:58,799 --> 00:27:04,480
children's services, senior services,
police, library, mental health, and

232
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:11,279
county parks.
The Hein TIF exempts the schools from

233
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:16,720
this from losing any revenue, but the
proposed TIF, but they are only issues

234
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:21,760
that do not lose funding. All of those
other issues I mentioned will lose

235
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:25,919
funding as a result of this tiff. The
fire and EMS department and other

236
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:30,559
services that I mentioned will be taking
on additional demands for their services

237
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:36,159
without receiving the additional re
revenues that is captured by the tiff.

238
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:40,240
Eventually the increased costs for these
services for the new properties will be

239
00:27:38,799 --> 00:27:45,120
loaded onto the remainder of the
taxpayers. Some revenue will be exempt

240
00:27:43,039 --> 00:27:50,000
from the tiff but will be minimal on new
construction. This is considered the

241
00:27:47,279 --> 00:27:53,679
base and is frozen at current values. As
a voter, I voted for the issues that I

242
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:57,919
mentioned previously. I believe they are
important and provide services for my

243
00:27:55,520 --> 00:28:02,640
friends and neighbors that they need. I
do not support redirecting them for

244
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:07,200
other non-voted purposes. I believe that
if our V village has a need for funding

245
00:28:05,279 --> 00:28:11,039
to repair or replace infrastructure
within the village, a plan should be

246
00:28:09,279 --> 00:28:15,440
developed which covers a minimum 10
years along with projected costs and

247
00:28:13,360 --> 00:28:20,480
presented to the voters for their
approval. I would support such attacks.

248
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:24,399
I have been advised by the Lincoln
County Auditor's office that the process

249
00:28:22,399 --> 00:28:30,399
for implementing the Hein Landing tiff
district still has several steps before

250
00:28:27,039 --> 00:28:34,960
it is finally implemented. The Hein
legislation requires an extensive packet

251
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:38,240
be prepared and submitted to the county
auditor's office who will then forward

252
00:28:36,799 --> 00:28:42,159
that to the state department of
taxation. The state will then review the

253
00:28:40,799 --> 00:28:46,640
packet with all the required
documentation to determine if the

254
00:28:44,559 --> 00:28:51,840
district will be approved. If approved,
it will then be sent back to the county

255
00:28:48,159 --> 00:28:56,799
auditor's office for an implementation.
In view of the information I have

256
00:28:53,840 --> 00:29:00,640
provided this evening, I am respectfully
requesting that the Hein Council

257
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:05,919
consider another review of the Hein
Landing TIFF legislation and project at

258
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:09,840
a future council committee meeting. This
would allow the council to hear

259
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:16,720
testimony from representatives of
impacted agencies and ensure any further

260
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:20,559
other due diligence is conducted.
I'd be happy to take any questions if

261
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:26,320
you like. Otherwise, thank you for your
time this evening. Thank you.

262
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:32,000
» Um
just a couple of items I want to address

263
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:36,880
with those uh concerns brought forward.
First, uh tiffs aren't just used for

264
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:43,760
homes. Um it's for any type of
development that comes in. Um also, uh

265
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:51,520
historically, New Albany and many other
types of jurisdictions in that same um

266
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:58,640
vein have qualified for the blighted or
whatever other um rules were stated. And

267
00:29:54,960 --> 00:30:04,240
also uh with regard to your tax dollars
being redirected, it's not yours. It's

268
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:09,440
the new uh developments tax dollars that
are being directed. But, uh, I do want

269
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:14,000
to thank you for, um, taking the time to
come and speak tonight, and I do

270
00:30:11,679 --> 00:30:18,559
appreciate your years of service to the
community, and I know that you

271
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:23,039
understand these issues very well. Um,
council, I would just say that residents

272
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:27,279
should know how a tiff works. They
should know where the money goes, and

273
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:32,720
they should know why elected officials
make the decisions they make. I agree

274
00:30:29,039 --> 00:30:38,159
with all of that. That is why the Hein
Landing TIFF was introduced. discussed,

275
00:30:35,919 --> 00:30:42,880
debated, and approved in public
meetings. It was not done in secret.

276
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:48,000
Every vote was public. Every document is
a public record, and recordings of those

277
00:30:45,039 --> 00:30:52,159
meetings are available for anyone who
wants to review them. The bigger

278
00:30:50,399 --> 00:30:57,200
question before us tonight is what's in
the best interest of Hebrin residents.

279
00:30:54,880 --> 00:31:01,919
We have roads that need attention. We
have storm water problems that need

280
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:06,080
attention. Last week, residents dealt
with serious flooding. Some families had

281
00:31:04,159 --> 00:31:10,320
water in their homes. Some were
displaced from their homes. Those are

282
00:31:08,399 --> 00:31:16,720
real problems affecting our community
today. The people of Hebrin expect us to

283
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:21,760
address them and they expect us to do it
responsibly. I also think it's important

284
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:26,960
to remember that for many years, Hein
residents paid a higher tax rate for

285
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:30,320
fire, fire, and EMS than other
neighborhoods within our own

286
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:35,360
jurisdiction,
despite sharing the exact same service

287
00:31:33,279 --> 00:31:39,919
network.
Our residents understand fairness. They

288
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:44,640
expect their elected officials to
protect their interests just as firmly

289
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:50,640
as every neighboring community protects
theirs. Today, homeowners are facing

290
00:31:47,919 --> 00:31:54,720
rising costs everywhere they turn.
People are concerned about property

291
00:31:52,480 --> 00:32:01,120
taxes. We see this in the news
constantly that the voters are trying to

292
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:04,480
repeal property taxes.
They're concerned about the cost of

293
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:09,120
living. They're concerned about staying
in their homes. For some people, it is

294
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:13,360
very real that if their property taxes
go up, they have to seriously entertain

295
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:19,200
moving.
When our effort to replace a police levy

296
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:24,080
that was over 40 years old failed, it
wasn't because they told me they didn't

297
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:30,159
like their police. They told me they
didn't want to pay more in taxes.

298
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:35,200
They want good services, but they also
expect us to spend the money that we get

299
00:32:32,559 --> 00:32:39,840
wisely. And while it's true some
residents may be willing to pay more in

300
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:45,360
taxes, I believe most Hebrin residents
would rather see us make the best

301
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:51,279
possible use of the taxes that they are
already paying. That is exactly what

302
00:32:48,559 --> 00:32:56,720
council was trying to do by considering
and contemplating and ultimately voting

303
00:32:53,440 --> 00:33:01,200
for this tiff. I have not heard any
public agency tell Hein that we should

304
00:32:59,039 --> 00:33:05,840
never use TIFFs.
In fact, West Licking Joint Fire

305
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:11,840
District provided village leadership
with a Pataskca framework that they have

306
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:16,880
worked with Pascala on that includes
continued use of TIFFs and ways to make

307
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:21,360
sure that the fire district is still
protected.

308
00:33:18,559 --> 00:33:26,799
To me, the fact that Wes Licking shared
a model agreement on how to use TIFFs

309
00:33:24,559 --> 00:33:31,600
suggests that the conversation isn't
whether we should be using TIFFs. The

310
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:37,440
conversation should be how we can use
them responsibly while still enabling

311
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:42,640
Westlicking Joint Fire District to
provide important public services.

312
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:49,039
I also want residents to understand
something important.

313
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:55,519
A tiff does not raise taxes and if this
tiff does not take sorry this tiff does

314
00:33:52,399 --> 00:34:00,080
not take existing tax revenue from the
agencies.

315
00:33:57,039 --> 00:34:05,200
It uses future revenue in new
development and it places it in a

316
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:10,159
separate fund and it can only be used
for public projects including

317
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:15,760
infrastructure improvements and related
costs. Reasonable people can disagree

318
00:34:13,359 --> 00:34:20,800
about the details of a tiff. That's fair
and that's healthy. But I do not believe

319
00:34:18,720 --> 00:34:26,720
the answer is to take tools away from
Hebrin that can help us maintain roads,

320
00:34:23,679 --> 00:34:31,679
improve drainage, reduce flooding, and
make better use of taxpayer dollars. The

321
00:34:29,359 --> 00:34:37,839
real question is not whether money is
being redirected. The real question is

322
00:34:34,639 --> 00:34:43,440
whether we use lawful tools to maintain
the community we already have like those

323
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:49,679
other jurisdictions that are in this
joint district with us or whether we ask

324
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:56,399
homeowners and taxpayers to carry even
more of a burden. I want to be crystal

325
00:34:53,440 --> 00:35:03,359
clear about my position as a mayor.
Before I ask Hebrin residents and Hebrin

326
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:08,640
taxpayers for a single dollar more, I
have a responsibility and I feel that

327
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:13,040
council has a responsibility to make
sure that we've made the best possible

328
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:18,800
use of every single dollar they have
already made available to us. I believe

329
00:35:16,079 --> 00:35:25,599
that is what our residents expect to us
us to do and that is what I plan to

330
00:35:21,599 --> 00:35:29,760
continue to do. Thank you. Council,
>> may I respond?

331
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:34,240
» Your five minutes are up. You're welcome
to come back and you're also welcome to

332
00:35:32,240 --> 00:35:39,920
send a letter.
>> My five minutes.

333
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:42,920
» I'm not a member of the public. Thank
you.

334
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,960
Any other visitor comments?

335
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:04,680
Okay. The next item on the agenda is
legislation.

336
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:14,400
First item is ordinance 1426,
an ordinance to amend section 339.0.

337
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:19,520
02 of the village of Hebrin, Ohio,
codified code section titled through

338
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:22,800
trucks prohibited. This is the first
reading.

339
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:25,359
» Mayor, if I may speak on this,
>> of course.

340
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:28,640
» Um, I guess first, do we want to read
through the ordinance or is now a good

341
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:33,520
time to go ahead and begin discussion on
this?

342
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:38,720
» You're welcome to speak to uh ordinance
1426. If I may, understanding again as

343
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:42,480
we just talked about infrastructure and
the ramifications as we know with trucks

344
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:47,680
that continue to pass through certain
roads and the damage that they incur.

345
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:52,320
Um, I am going to in a moment make the
motion to declare an emergency and seek

346
00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:58,240
for us to wave the readings. And here is
why. The more time that we allow to pass

347
00:36:55,760 --> 00:37:02,800
and otherwise not take action
decisively, the more time trucks go over

348
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:08,320
these roads and cause more damage, which
in turn creates a bill to their

349
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:13,520
taxpayer. It is in that mindset that I
believe it would be best to implement

350
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:17,760
this. Not that I seek to otherwise wave
an ordinary process in political

351
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:21,839
discourse, but I think time is of the
essence in order to address this issue

352
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:25,599
and ensure we do what we need to do to
keep our infrastructure as best as we

353
00:37:23,599 --> 00:37:30,320
can and not incur additional costs from
damage, especially with these trucks

354
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:36,160
that pass through. That being said, I
believe I may now make the motion to in

355
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:42,720
that sense um declare an emergency and
wave the readings

356
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:47,920
for this ordinance. Ordinance 14-26.
>> It's got a point of order. You need to

357
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:51,599
require to make two separate motions.
>> Would it be one to declare an emergency

358
00:37:49,839 --> 00:37:56,079
and one to wave the readings?
>> Correct.

359
00:37:52,640 --> 00:38:00,240
» Okay. Then in that case, first motion I
would make is to declare an emergency.

360
00:37:59,359 --> 00:38:03,440
Do I have that right?
>> That's fine. That's fine. Doesn't matter

361
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,520
the order, but they need to be separate
motions.

362
00:38:04,079 --> 00:38:09,240
» Understood. I'll make the first one.
Thank you, Solicitor Rose.

363
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:18,079
Just
>> so I have a question, but it'll be after

364
00:38:17,359 --> 00:38:22,720
the second.
>> We don't have to make that an emergency,

365
00:38:20,079 --> 00:38:27,200
right? We can just wave the readings.
>> If you want it to take effect

366
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:31,920
immediately, it needs to be declared an
emergency. If you want it to take effect

367
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:36,320
in 30 days,
>> you don't need to make uh you don't need

368
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:40,960
to declare it emergency, but you would
need to wave the readings if you wish to

369
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:45,280
vote on it tonight.
>> I'll second his motion.

370
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:51,440
» Okay. So, I have a motion on the floor
to declare an emergency for uh ordinance

371
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:55,280
1426. I have that motion from council
member Juvenelli and a second from

372
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:59,760
council member Marietta. Any discussion
on making it an emergency?

373
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:04,320
» I just had a quick question. Didn't we
already have a ordinance to not through

374
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:08,160
birth through trucks? What is the
change? Wasn't this already in place or

375
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:13,359
what are we changing?
>> So, uh, very long story short, there was

376
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:20,000
a deeper dive into the language that we
currently have in our ordinance and um,

377
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:24,400
it was found lacking. So, this is to
make it more robust and enforceable so

378
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:30,079
we can actually do what we've been
trying to do for years, which is ask

379
00:39:26,720 --> 00:39:34,800
trucks to not drive on roads they need
not be on.

380
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:37,800
Did I get that about right, Chief? Thank
you.

381
00:39:38,240 --> 00:39:46,000
So, we have a motion on the floor and a
second. Any other discussion on

382
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:50,400
declaring an emergency?
Roll call, please.

383
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,320
Mr. Wolf,
>> yes.

384
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:55,200
» Mr. Huanelli,
>> yes.

385
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:57,119
» Mr. Carpenter,
>> yes.

386
00:39:55,839 --> 00:39:59,280
» Mr. Marietta,
>> yes.

387
00:39:58,240 --> 00:40:00,480
» Miss Hoskinson,
>> yes.

388
00:39:59,599 --> 00:40:03,760
» Mrs. Chapman,
>> yes.

389
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:07,200
» Thank you, council. That passes 6,
presumably.

390
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:13,680
» I will now go ahead to Solicister Rose's
point. Make the second motion to wave

391
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:18,400
the readings on ordinance 14-26.
>> I'll second that. I have a motion,

392
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:22,720
sorry, from council member Juvenelli and
a second from council member Marietta.

393
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:27,079
Any discussion on
um waving the readings for 1426

394
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:33,359
hearing? None. Roll call.
>> Miss Hoskinson,

395
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:34,800
» yes.
>> Mrs. Chapman,

396
00:40:34,240 --> 00:40:36,000
» yes.
>> Mr. Wolf,

397
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,359
» yes.
>> Mr. Juvenelli,

398
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,040
» yes.
>> Mr. Carpenter,

399
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,720
» yes.
>> Mr. Marietta,

400
00:40:40,079 --> 00:40:46,560
» yes.
>> Thank you. That count that also passes

401
00:40:43,119 --> 00:40:50,640
6. And finally, um, I presume I'm
looking for a motion to adopt ordinance

402
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,880
1426.
>> So moved.

403
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:56,400
» Second.
>> I have a motion from council member

404
00:40:54,640 --> 00:41:01,240
Juvenelli and a second from Council
Member Hoskinson. Any discussion?

405
00:41:01,359 --> 00:41:04,480
» Roll call, please.
>> Mr. Wolf,

406
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,079
» yes.
>> Miss Hoskinson,

407
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,520
» yes.
>> Mrs. Chapman,

408
00:41:07,119 --> 00:41:08,880
» yes.
>> Mr. Marietta,

409
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,560
» yes.
>> Mr. Carpenter,

410
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:17,240
» yes.
>> Mr. Juvenile,

411
00:41:11,599 --> 00:41:17,240
» yes. Thank you, council. That passes 6.

412
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:25,280
And um I think we have visitors who did
not come up and speak a moment ago. Um

413
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:31,800
Minist would you like to send a
representative up to speak to council?

414
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,800
Thank you.

415
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:42,079
Good evening. Uh Sarah Matthews, Wind
Waste Innovations, 995 Keller Drive,

416
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:46,560
Heath, Ohio. um was just really coming
um uh at the request of Miss Meister to

417
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:51,920
come in and speak to council in regards
to your services that we render in in

418
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:58,160
the village. Um see if there's any
questions, any concerns um anything that

419
00:41:54,720 --> 00:42:04,960
I could address this evening.
>> I know various council members have um

420
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:08,480
articulated some concerns. So
I know one of the concerns that I have

421
00:42:06,720 --> 00:42:13,760
was when we were discussing the
contracts One of the high points that we

422
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:18,960
were
talking back and forth was that one of

423
00:42:15,839 --> 00:42:23,359
your benefits was that multiple
containers weren't going to be a billing

424
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:28,640
issue. That if the trash was there, it
would be taking, which was a highlight

425
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:34,800
for a lot of the residents. I know
myself as a resident that's not been the

426
00:42:32,079 --> 00:42:39,720
case. I've actually had my trash not
picked up because I've had personal

427
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:47,760
units there and I've been told if I
can't fit it in, I can't be picked up.

428
00:42:45,839 --> 00:42:54,480
That concerns me.
>> Um, I am happy to um get your address

429
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:59,200
and to review your account to make sure
that it is compliant with our program.

430
00:42:57,119 --> 00:43:04,480
Um I I do have to and maybe I should
have started off this so I apologize but

431
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:11,920
um do have to address some issues over
the last couple of months that we have

432
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:18,319
had. Um and the the we have experienced
a issue with our driving force. Um and

433
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:25,359
so over the last few months maybe April,
May, June, you we we did see a slight in

434
00:43:21,599 --> 00:43:32,480
intake of service complaints. Um and I
apologize for that. Uh we have made

435
00:43:27,839 --> 00:43:36,960
great strides to uh hire drivers. Um it
is uh a regular occurrence in the

436
00:43:34,720 --> 00:43:43,200
industry. Unfortunately, it's a very
highly demanded job and um one that

437
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:48,079
highly recruited. Um and we also have
new operations leadership in our Heath

438
00:43:45,599 --> 00:43:53,200
office. So um with that said, we have
had some subd drivers in your community.

439
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:57,440
uh drivers that are not 100% familiar
with your community. It is a resource

440
00:43:54,960 --> 00:44:01,760
that we have that allows us to bring in
other drivers to make certain that we

441
00:43:59,599 --> 00:44:07,359
are getting the trash picked up, but we
do at times encounter issues uh with a

442
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:11,119
missed stop. Uh so, one thing I noticed
is a lot of the corner units, maybe they

443
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:13,760
place their trash out on it's not their
address and they placed it on the

444
00:44:12,319 --> 00:44:18,560
neighboring street. So, that was one
thing that we've c came across. Um maybe

445
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:25,599
a compliance issue with not taking your
personal container. um or a bulk item

446
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:28,960
just due to that driver not being as
familiar. So, I certainly apologize if

447
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:33,599
that's something that you're still
encountering. Please let me know. Again,

448
00:44:31,359 --> 00:44:39,040
I'll look into it and make certain that
we're speaking to the driver. Um but I

449
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:44,000
do believe we have those things ironed
out. I think for your patience as as we

450
00:44:41,839 --> 00:44:48,000
have worked oursel through that, um we
are fully staffed and as I said, we do

451
00:44:45,599 --> 00:44:52,960
have new leadership in in place. Uh we
try to be incredibly responsive. We are

452
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:56,400
very proud to partner with the village
and anytime we got a communication, we

453
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:59,760
take it very seriously. We escalate it
immediately, try to make certain that

454
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:05,720
we're resolving it. So I do apologize if
you encountered that problem. Um happy

455
00:45:01,599 --> 00:45:05,720
to get it rectified for you.

456
00:45:12,079 --> 00:45:18,319
» I don't have a question, but I have a
comment. um several months. I guess it

457
00:45:16,319 --> 00:45:22,800
was right after you took the contract.
We did have something not taken, but

458
00:45:20,240 --> 00:45:26,640
oop, sorry. But here recently, we've had
excellent service lately. So,

459
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:29,440
» thank you very much. Uh we do, like you
said, we do take great pride in

460
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:33,200
partnering with the village. We want to
deliver the best service. Uh we

461
00:45:31,359 --> 00:45:37,440
appreciate your patience as we've had
some substitutes not as familiar. Um but

462
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:41,920
but we do really want to deliver great
service. We we don't ever want for you

463
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:46,480
to get a call. Um, and so I know that,
um, getting those calls was a little

464
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:50,520
unusual. Uh, and I appreciate your
patience while we work through that.

465
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:56,720
» And if you do ever get a call, certainly
reach out to me. We want to get it

466
00:45:53,680 --> 00:46:00,760
corrected as soon as possible.
Thank you so much you

467
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:14,400
» uh the next item is council action items

» Yes.
>> Miss Hoskinson?

478
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:53,839
» Yes.
>> Thank you. Council passes 6. The next

479
00:46:50,640 --> 00:47:00,240
item is the appropriation amendment
regarding a community enhancement.

480
00:46:57,839 --> 00:47:04,640
» Good evening, council. I am asking for
an appropriation for our community

481
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:09,119
enhancement fund. Uh because with all of
the extra events that we've had this

482
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:13,119
year, America 250 specifically, but also
because we've been um our strategy for

483
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:18,160
sponsorship looked a little different
this year. we were able to proactively

484
00:47:15,119 --> 00:47:23,760
send out packages asking for businesses
and community partners to sponsor um an

485
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:28,240
entire package of events. And so that
being said, uh with review with CFO

486
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:32,240
Morgan, uh there's money in the account
that we can continue to use for the rest

487
00:47:30,240 --> 00:47:36,960
of the events this year, but it is not
appropriated at this point. And so I am

488
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:41,359
asking for that change. I did not bring
my notes with me about what amount we

489
00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:48,560
decided on. So I'm looking at you, CFO
Morgan. I know we had that settled

490
00:47:43,599 --> 00:47:53,280
though. Thank you. Uh so $10,000 to uh
be reappropriated for that account and

491
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:57,440
again like I mentioned we because of the
generosity of many sponsors we've been

492
00:47:55,119 --> 00:48:01,119
very successful in funding that account
not only with your contribution but with

493
00:47:59,119 --> 00:48:05,760
the contribution of our businesses and
we want to make sure between few other

494
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:09,200
events we have but primarily our
Halloween bash and the Christmas market

495
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:13,599
we need to make sure we have the
appropriate funds to continue those

496
00:48:10,720 --> 00:48:13,599
events this year.

497
00:48:17,119 --> 00:48:23,200
Seconded.
I have a motion from council member

498
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:27,640
Carpenter and a second from council
member Juvenelli. Any discussion?

499
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:34,640
Roll call, please.
Miss. Hoskinson?

500
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,920
» Yes. Mrs. Chapman?
>> Yes.

501
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,440
» Mr. Wolf?
>> Yes.

502
00:48:36,240 --> 00:48:39,680
» Mr. Duvenelli?
>> Yes.

503
00:48:37,839 --> 00:48:44,359
» Mr. Marietta?
>> Yes.

504
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:44,359
» Mr. Carpenter? Yes.

505
00:48:44,559 --> 00:48:52,640
» Thank you, council. That passed the 60.
And I just want to clarify um CFO

506
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:59,440
Morgan. So, let's say I personally wrote
a check as a business owner in the

507
00:48:55,520 --> 00:49:04,640
village to give money for another
community event. Um, does that money

508
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:10,480
just go straight into whatever account
or does that require

509
00:49:07,839 --> 00:49:14,480
that money to be then appropriated
because it's an additional amount that

510
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:19,119
we hadn't anticipated earlier?
>> Well, at the beginning at the end of

511
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:24,480
each year going into the new year, we do
our appropriations. Part of that is also

512
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:30,559
estimating revenue. With this particular
fund, it's very hard to know exactly how

513
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:36,240
much you're going to be able to have in
donations and bring in. So, we took kind

514
00:49:33,119 --> 00:49:41,440
of a rough estimate and then set the
appropriations accordingly. Moving on

515
00:49:38,720 --> 00:49:47,440
through the year, businesses and
residents have been more generous and

516
00:49:44,720 --> 00:49:54,400
therefore the appropriations need to be
raised for that level of extra revenue

517
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:58,319
we received. So, thank you. Right. Just
wanted to clarify so that folks

518
00:49:56,000 --> 00:50:04,640
understood we weren't just robbing Peter
to pay Paul. Okay.

519
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:08,720
» Okay. The next item is a utility
director. Can you speak to that as well?

520
00:50:06,720 --> 00:50:13,760
» Um, so in your packet, you should have
received a proposed job description. Um,

521
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:18,319
I'm it was at the beginning of this
month that I met with the personnel

522
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:23,599
committee and we introduced the idea of
utility director. Um when you asked me

523
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:27,359
to become the administrator, uh we
talked a lot about efficiencies and

524
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:32,000
making sure that we're building up the
right team and that we're positioning

525
00:50:29,599 --> 00:50:36,079
the village for the growth that we're
experiencing, but also to make sure that

526
00:50:34,319 --> 00:50:41,920
we're running your utilities smoothly
from now into the future. And so working

527
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:47,680
with several different uh team members
and uh including our engineering firm

528
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:53,040
and looking at the efficiencies in other
communities similar to our size. Um I'm

529
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:58,079
asking for council to consider this new
position for the utility director.

530
00:50:55,680 --> 00:51:05,119
There's a few points I want to clarify.
Um we have done some shifting around

531
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:09,599
operationally uh to ensure that what we
budgeted this year versus what we

532
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:14,640
anticipate budgeting next year. We are
not seeing an increase in salaries even

533
00:51:12,319 --> 00:51:19,839
though we're adding this position. Uh
our plan is that we will not have

534
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:24,559
assistant superintendent in the water
and waste or water reclamation

535
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:28,559
departments. Instead, we will have the
utility director and we will have the

536
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:33,839
two superintendent reporting directly to
them with the utility director reporting

537
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:39,680
to me. Um I'm finding out as I'm
learning and diving into this role that

538
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:45,119
having consistency amongst the two
departments is really really important

539
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:50,720
and we are fortunate to have some great
uh team members in that department and

540
00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:55,359
so um having discussion with them and
talking about operationally where are

541
00:51:52,640 --> 00:52:00,800
some gaps this is where this we've
resulted to to this position. Um, we've

542
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:04,880
really dove into the job description and
making sure that there's clear lines

543
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:09,599
amongst the superintendent, the utility
director, and the administrator. But, of

544
00:52:07,359 --> 00:52:14,000
course, as we, uh, figure this out and
navigate a new position, uh, especially

545
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:17,520
one in leadership, there will probably
be adjustments we have to make along the

546
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:22,240
way, and I'll keep you updated as we
figure out how to to best make this

547
00:52:19,839 --> 00:52:25,119
position function for the village. I
know you probably have lots of

548
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:28,400
questions, so I'm happy to answer any
you may have.

549
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:46,960
No, I not. Uh, I am looking for a motion
to ask solicitor Rose to draft

550
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:50,880
legislation for this new position.
>> So moved.

551
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:55,599
» Second.
Thank you, council. I have a vote or a

552
00:52:53,760 --> 00:53:00,640
motion from council member Marietta and
a second from council member Hoskinson

553
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:06,240
uh to draft legislation for council to
consider with regard to a utility

554
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:09,800
director position.
Roll call, please.

555
00:53:10,240 --> 00:53:13,200
» Mr. Wolf,
>> yes.

556
00:53:12,079 --> 00:53:14,720
» Mr. Marietta,
>> yes.

557
00:53:13,599 --> 00:53:16,400
» Mr. Duvenelli,
>> yes.

558
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:21,520
» Mrs. Chapman, yes.
>> Miss Hoskinson, yes. Mr. Carpenter,

559
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:26,960
» yes.
Thank you, council.

560
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:31,760
I do appreciate each time council is
willing to consider

561
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:36,480
um putting more responsibility on
individuals who demonstrate that they

562
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:41,280
can handle more responsibility and
demonstrate that they are willing to do

563
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:46,319
more for the village and more for
residents. So, thank you for that. Um I

564
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:51,760
really want us to leverage our talent as
much as we can instead of creating more

565
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:56,640
jobs. I'd much rather have people do
great at their current and uh elevated

566
00:53:54,880 --> 00:54:00,000
roles. So, thank you for doing for at
least considering it.

567
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:04,640
The [clears throat] next item on the
agenda is administrators report. All

568
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:09,440
right, several items that I want to
share with you. Um I will end with

569
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:14,000
everything we've dealt with this past
week, which you obviously know is

570
00:54:11,359 --> 00:54:18,800
coming. Um but on a high note, we are
excited to welcome a company called

571
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:24,720
Westerman. Uh that announcement was made
today. Uh it's a multi-million dollar

572
00:54:21,599 --> 00:54:30,880
investment uh with a great payroll
investment in the village as well. Could

573
00:54:26,559 --> 00:54:35,200
be upwards of 130 employees. Um this
particular company is located in

574
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:41,680
Breamman and they're opening their uh an
additional location here in Hebrin. Um

575
00:54:38,319 --> 00:54:46,240
they build the tanks that are used for
nuclear power. So they're not doing that

576
00:54:44,240 --> 00:54:51,359
here just to clarify. uh they're
building the tanks for that. Um they

577
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:54,800
will be occupying the old Ohio Metal
Technologies building. So it's not a new

578
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:58,640
building, it's going into an existing
building, which is also a really big

579
00:54:56,720 --> 00:55:02,880
win. Um because that building's been
empty for a couple years now. Uh they've

580
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:06,960
already been a great partner. We've
worked very closely with Growlicki

581
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:11,280
County and One Columbus. Um so as we
continue to celebrate that win and get

582
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:16,480
more information, I will make sure to
share that with you.

583
00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:19,920
Uh, as a reminder, um, Chris will be
sending out some information the Ohio

584
00:55:18,079 --> 00:55:23,520
Municipal League conference that is
coming up in October. Uh, I know the

585
00:55:22,079 --> 00:55:27,359
mayor will probably chat about this
during her comments as well, but it's

586
00:55:25,359 --> 00:55:32,319
really great programming for council,
mayors, and administration. So, I hope

587
00:55:29,359 --> 00:55:36,880
to see you all there. Uh, as well as you
will be receiving a reminder about your

588
00:55:34,559 --> 00:55:41,119
public records training and making sure
that's completed before the end of the

589
00:55:38,559 --> 00:55:44,720
year.
We are going to have two different

590
00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:48,960
opportunities for council to volunteer
and I hope you'll consider it. Uh one is

591
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:52,319
the river roundup. Uh we do this
annually. Uh you're probably going to

592
00:55:50,559 --> 00:55:56,799
see some information that river roundup
this year falls on pie festival day and

593
00:55:54,480 --> 00:56:01,040
you all know nothing else happens on pie
festival day in Hebrin other than the pi

594
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:06,799
festival. So, that being said, uh we did
change our date to September 5th, and of

595
00:56:04,240 --> 00:56:10,160
course, we are going to need extra hands
with that cleanup given the

596
00:56:08,240 --> 00:56:15,040
circumstances of what we faced last
week. So, I hope you'll consider

597
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:19,359
volunteering. And then, uh after you get
done cleaning up the parks and the

598
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:23,599
ditches the following weekend, we ask
you to wash your hands first, but then

599
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:26,799
come and serve pie at the pie festival.
and we have several opportunities

600
00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:31,760
throughout that evening for you to sign
up and support that effort as well. Um,

601
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:38,480
we will send out both of those signups
via email so that you can consider them.

602
00:56:36,240 --> 00:56:44,160
And uh, this being a topic this evening,
I feel like it's appropriate to mention,

603
00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:48,480
I know you're aware, but um, with the
Wurns and their concerns, I think it

604
00:56:46,319 --> 00:56:52,799
raises the priority for our active
transportation plan that we're working

605
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:57,200
through right now. Um, so we're working
very closely with LCATs to start that

606
00:56:55,280 --> 00:57:02,079
work. Uh, we've already done a kickoff
and they've already been in the village

607
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:08,400
soliciting feedback from residents. Um,
also with signage in the village uh near

608
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:12,400
some of our most traveled areas uh with
walking and biking with a QR code and

609
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:17,280
they said that the feedback is coming in
really well. They'll also be at the pi

610
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:21,839
festival and then of course I has I I
have forwarded the communication um to

611
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:25,520
them so that we can really take a deeper
dive into the bike safety aspect as

612
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:33,599
we're working through this plan long
term. So please note that. And then um

613
00:57:30,559 --> 00:57:36,799
I'm convinced that uh the first 30 days
as administrator there's going to be a

614
00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:43,359
little bit of everything thrown at me to
make sure I can hack it. Uh because last

615
00:57:39,359 --> 00:57:47,200
week was a doozy. Um, I am so grateful
to all of the different partners from a

616
00:57:45,599 --> 00:57:51,680
county and a regional perspective. All
of you, all of our businesses and

617
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:57,359
residents that stepped up to make sure
that um, our people were taken care of.

618
00:57:54,319 --> 00:58:01,520
Uh, it was a really tough week for many
of our residents. Um, some of them

619
00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:06,000
displaced from their homes, some of them
still in their homes, but literally

620
00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:11,119
surrounded by water. um and the amount
of people that were willing to step up

621
00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:15,200
and take care of one another. It was it
was really special to see. Um, so I want

622
00:58:13,599 --> 00:58:20,079
to thank of course our police
department, uh, Westlicking Fire, uh,

623
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:24,160
for all of their help. Uh, our public
works department and our community

624
00:58:21,599 --> 00:58:29,040
development department. But even though,
um, our other utility departments

625
00:58:25,599 --> 00:58:33,839
necessarily weren't focused on flooding,
uh, there were some other issues that

626
00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:40,000
came out of flooding and kept them very,
very busy as well. um all of our

627
00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:43,440
churches. Uh Pastor Carpenter, uh
Councilman Carpenter, I don't know what

628
00:58:41,359 --> 00:58:48,559
to call you in this circumstance. Um and
then Pastor Harkness, um making sure

629
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:53,119
that we had a shelter for several people
that needed it throughout uh several

630
00:58:50,799 --> 00:58:57,839
days. Uh worked very closely with the
Licking County Emergency Management

631
00:58:54,880 --> 00:59:02,400
Agency, Red Cross, Salvation Army, the
businesses. we have so much that was

632
00:59:00,079 --> 00:59:06,960
donated that we're convinced that we're
going to have extra even after we

633
00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:11,440
deliver the care packages tomorrow. So,
uh they really really stepped up. So,

634
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:14,960
along those same lines, Hein
Trailblazers, our community improvement

635
00:59:13,119 --> 00:59:18,319
corporation, um if you would walk
across, well, you can see it in the

636
00:59:16,319 --> 00:59:23,920
hallway right now. Um but if you also
would go to the library space, you would

637
00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:27,520
see so many items that have been donated
um by different people. And we're going

638
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:30,640
to be using those items to build care
packages that will not only build

639
00:59:29,119 --> 00:59:33,440
tomorrow. So, if you're interested from
9 to 11, but then we're going to

640
00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:38,319
physically deliver them to the
properties that we know were impacted.

641
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:42,640
And then we're also going to initiate uh
and allow residents to to pull through

642
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:48,079
the parking lot and pick up if we didn't
get them through hand delivery. So,

643
00:59:45,359 --> 00:59:53,839
those um deliveries are going to include
personal care items, um cleaning

644
00:59:50,559 --> 00:59:59,040
supplies, food, a variety of items that
hopefully will be helpful to all of

645
00:59:56,319 --> 01:00:03,359
them. Um there is also a crisis cleanup
line that we're sharing via Facebook and

646
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:06,400
getting ready to put out an email. So,
as you're seeing those things or you're

647
01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:10,079
talking to residents that have been
impacted, please make sure that you

648
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:15,119
share with them that there are resources
available for them or at least worth a

649
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:18,880
call. Um, I talked to the EMA today and
they said that even across all of the

650
01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:22,720
communities that were impacted this past
week, the calls have actually been

651
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:27,440
really minimal um for that cleanup
crisis line. So, I'm not sure if people

652
01:00:25,359 --> 01:00:33,200
are really realizing that that resource
is available to them. Uh, with that, I

653
01:00:31,599 --> 01:00:38,000
also want to mention that we've received
an influx of call calls about sink holes

654
01:00:35,359 --> 01:00:43,040
or other issues along the village. Um,
we had a tree down on Canal Road today.

655
01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:46,799
Um, those things are a result of what we
experienced last week and my team is

656
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:51,760
working really hard to make sure that we
address them as soon as we possibly can.

657
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:55,359
Um, and I know that it's extremely
frustrating for residents when we can't

658
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:59,599
address them on the same day that
they're brought up. Um, but I ask that

659
01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:03,119
you if you hear any of these concerns,
you bring them to me immediately so that

660
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:07,440
we can get them on the list, prioritize
them, and make sure everybody's taken

661
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:14,440
care of as quickly as we possibly can.
So, that concludes my update.

662
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:14,440
Thank you,

663
01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:23,200
Council President Wolf.
>> Um, I brought this up one other time.

664
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:29,920
It's been a while back, but just talking
about the bike safety and all that. It's

665
01:01:26,799 --> 01:01:33,440
possible to get a crosswalk put in on
Maine at 9th.

666
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:38,160
» I mean, the sidewalk's already cut there
for it.

667
01:01:35,839 --> 01:01:41,839
» Absolutely. So, um, I should have
mentioned this as well. We've had some

668
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:45,680
things come up between then, so we
didn't get to celebrate as much as I'd

669
01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:50,079
like to, but with the ODOT funding that
I mentioned a few weeks ago,

670
01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:54,000
approximately almost $1.9 million that
we were awarded. Um, I have that kickoff

671
01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:58,000
call in September. It's not going to be
a fast project. We all know that I like

672
01:01:56,000 --> 01:02:02,720
things done the next day, but reality
sinking in. It doesn't work that way

673
01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:08,240
sometimes. um but $1.9 million and it is
specifically to safety and pedestrian

674
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:13,520
safety uh on West Main Street. So that's
going to include multiple sidewalks, a

675
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:18,799
bike lane, curve out um I'm sorry, um
bumpouts, and several other features

676
01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:22,640
that I think will make a huge difference
long term, but we'll have to be patient

677
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:28,359
on that. And I'll have more information
on what that timeline looks like after

678
01:02:24,319 --> 01:02:28,359
that kickoff call in September.

679
01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:33,359
Good.
Thank you, council member. Council

680
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:39,440
member Juvenelli.
>> Yes. Um, well, first I in my report

681
01:02:36,799 --> 01:02:43,359
wanted to take a moment to recognize and
thank everyone across the village who

682
01:02:41,599 --> 01:02:47,599
stepped over or stepped up over the past
week in response to the flooding our

683
01:02:45,359 --> 01:02:52,400
community experienced. The work of our
police department, public works, water

684
01:02:50,559 --> 01:02:57,040
and wastewater department, and the
entire village administration was truly

685
01:02:54,319 --> 01:03:01,040
commendable. I am incredibly grateful
for the time, effort, and dedication

686
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:05,839
that went into helping our community
through a very difficult situation.

687
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:10,000
But just as importantly as I was
incredibly proud to see how many people

688
01:03:07,839 --> 01:03:14,480
throughout Hebrin stepped up to help
their neighbors, whether through

689
01:03:11,839 --> 01:03:19,119
donations, assisting with evacuations,
helping those directly impacted, or

690
01:03:16,799 --> 01:03:23,359
continuing to led or lend a hand even
now.

691
01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:28,240
Moments like this remind me why I am so
proud to call Heinron home. The

692
01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:32,799
kindness, generosity, and genuine care
people showed one another over the past

693
01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:37,119
week says an awful lot about the
community that we have here. And I am

694
01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:40,160
simply wanting to say thank you to all
of you.

695
01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:44,400
Finally,
I'd like to acknowledge an email that I

696
01:03:41,920 --> 01:03:49,359
received recently from resident Jeff
Johnstone expressing concern about my

697
01:03:47,039 --> 01:03:54,640
work schedule and wondering if I should
step down. I wanted to address this

698
01:03:52,880 --> 01:04:00,799
publicly.
Balancing my career and public service

699
01:03:57,359 --> 01:04:05,440
is a challenge I embrace wholeheartedly
and one of which I've not missed a

700
01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:11,039
single beat. Serving Hebrin is an
incredible honor. I remain 100%

701
01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:18,400
committed to this seat and I'm not going
anywhere. I appreciate Jeff Jstone and

702
01:04:14,799 --> 01:04:23,599
all of our residents truly and also for
staying engaged in our local government.

703
01:04:21,119 --> 01:04:28,839
That's all I had. Thank you.
>> Thank you, Council Member Carpenter.

704
01:04:29,039 --> 01:04:37,760
» Couple things. Um
first the uh want to just remind council

705
01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:41,599
the potential for the upcoming finance
budget meeting.

706
01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:45,839
Just everybody start looking for it and
make yourself available so we can go

707
01:04:43,119 --> 01:04:52,599
through that process. CFO Morgan has
already selected the date I believe

708
01:04:49,599 --> 01:04:52,599
tenative

709
01:04:54,079 --> 01:04:58,960
like to encourage everybody to make that
a reality.

710
01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:02,400
Second,
>> everybody or just the committee?

711
01:05:00,319 --> 01:05:06,760
» The committee. Committee. Yes. Thank
you.

712
01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:06,760
» And staff.

713
01:05:08,079 --> 01:05:15,440
» Second. The uh community is reflective
of its leadership and I personally have

714
01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:20,960
heard the comments of everybody's
appreciation for the community that has

715
01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:27,119
stepped up for the recent flooding in
town. But as a council member who was

716
01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:33,839
out there on the streets, it was good to
see our mayor,

717
01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:36,960
our administrator, the police force, the
public works people, the fire

718
01:05:35,359 --> 01:05:41,839
department,
not just present, but doing above and

719
01:05:39,839 --> 01:05:47,680
beyond what their responsibility calls
for. I know I specifically caught the

720
01:05:45,599 --> 01:05:52,640
mayor on several occasions doing
steakouts.

721
01:05:50,319 --> 01:05:59,520
I actually brought her a meal tonight,
an ME so she'll never go hungry again.

722
01:05:56,720 --> 01:06:02,960
But I think it's
one of those jobs that you take a lot of

723
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:09,920
criticism for because you have to make
on the spot decisions that may not be so

724
01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:15,119
acceptable by everyone given the
predicament at large. But to see that

725
01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:21,119
they're willing to be out there getting
their boots rolled up and and doing the

726
01:06:17,839 --> 01:06:25,359
work that is necessary to me was very
overwhelming and quite frankly proud to

727
01:06:23,680 --> 01:06:30,559
be a part of the council of this this
city as a result. So I want to say thank

728
01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:36,480
you to the the leadership also. Then
finally, I'd like to just put in a plug

729
01:06:33,599 --> 01:06:40,880
for continued
review until resolution is made on the

730
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:49,200
ebikes.
I know I am seeing a huge insurgence

731
01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:54,720
of ebikes on our sidewalks
and I'm also seeing where safety is

732
01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:58,640
compromised to the fact that we're not
looking for pedestrians.

733
01:06:56,880 --> 01:07:04,359
We're taking ownership of the sidewalk
by the ebikes and that's concerning to

734
01:07:01,359 --> 01:07:04,359
me.

735
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:10,160
» Thank you,
Council Member Hoskinson.

736
01:07:08,079 --> 01:07:14,480
» I just want to reiterate same thing. I
was so proud. I was literally in tears

737
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:20,160
on Thursday when I stopped by to drop
stuff off because I was just in awe of

738
01:07:17,359 --> 01:07:24,640
the amount of time and everyone pouring
out their hearts. And

739
01:07:22,799 --> 01:07:30,319
uh my hearts also go out to everyone
that has struggled and lost things. It's

740
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:34,559
just it's terrible. Um but I'm so
appreciative of our community, our

741
01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:39,599
leadership, everyone, our businesses,
and our residents.

742
01:07:37,359 --> 01:07:43,599
That's all.
>> Thank you.

743
01:07:41,039 --> 01:07:48,079
» Oh, nothing. I didn't even get to say
your name. Okay. [laughter]

744
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:52,480
» Uh, Council Member Marietta,
>> I have two two things to share tonight,

745
01:07:50,319 --> 01:07:57,359
and I don't expect answers on either one
of these, but I know it's going it's

746
01:07:54,000 --> 01:08:03,760
coming. Uh, storm drains. I know we have
to get those inspected on. There was no

747
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:08,960
flow of a lot of water. Uh Dennis
uh street has had a problem for a long

748
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:14,559
time where even a small amount of water
comes in, it does not go anywhere for a

749
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:21,600
long time. It basically seeps out.
>> Uh and then we had a uh lift station off

750
01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:25,440
of Water Street. I believe it is by the
fire station.

751
01:08:23,520 --> 01:08:31,679
» It went down. Yeah.
>> Yeah. It went down and uh it took a call

752
01:08:29,359 --> 01:08:36,480
to get somebody there. And I'm thinking
maybe we might want to have like an

753
01:08:33,440 --> 01:08:41,759
alarm or a backup pump or something
there because not only did some

754
01:08:38,480 --> 01:08:47,359
residents get the water, they got the
waste water also. And uh that's only

755
01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:53,199
because that lift station went down. So
we got we need I you know I know we just

756
01:08:50,080 --> 01:09:00,239
need to get something done for that. Uh,
and then crazy thing is we have storm

757
01:08:56,400 --> 01:09:04,719
drains plugged up and I come by the day
after water receded and there's people

758
01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:08,880
mowing their grass, throwing the grass
out

759
01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:14,080
140. I just I don't know what to do
about that. Probably nothing you can't

760
01:09:10,719 --> 01:09:18,400
do. It's common sense that you shouldn't
be doing that and it's just plugging

761
01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:22,640
things up worse. So, we did at one time
we had cameras go down and check brains

762
01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:26,799
and all. Is that something we could
possibly do soon?

763
01:09:24,719 --> 01:09:32,480
» Yeah, we do that. And then of course
after the storms that took place, we

764
01:09:29,839 --> 01:09:36,000
have to go through and do a cleanout of
almost everything. Even culverts, we had

765
01:09:34,159 --> 01:09:39,120
trash cans flowing through culverts of
course that weren't there before the

766
01:09:37,359 --> 01:09:42,000
storm and made their way there. Um, so
there's going to be a lot of clean up

767
01:09:40,159 --> 01:09:46,880
and inspection that has to happen moving
forward. Um, I did learn a lot about

768
01:09:44,319 --> 01:09:51,359
lift stations over the last week, uh,
given the circumstances and, you know,

769
01:09:49,440 --> 01:09:54,640
some of it was simply because of the
flooding, right? I was just on a call,

770
01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:59,520
Mayor and I were on a call Sunday at
12:30 with Licking County EMA and other

771
01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:04,400
communities on that call were saying
that they experienced the sewer backup

772
01:10:01,679 --> 01:10:08,880
because of the amount of water and their
systems just couldn't keep up with it.

773
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:14,000
So, we weren't alone in that. Um,
however, the conversations about

774
01:10:11,440 --> 01:10:18,560
generators and, uh, the proper power
supply on some of these lift stations,

775
01:10:16,480 --> 01:10:21,760
uh, moving forward, uh, it's going to be
a big investment and we're probably not

776
01:10:20,159 --> 01:10:25,679
going to be able to get every single one
of them taken care of, but we're going

777
01:10:23,679 --> 01:10:30,000
to prioritize and talk about that during
budget season. Tom and I had some

778
01:10:27,440 --> 01:10:35,840
dialogue about that uh, last week, but
that is on the list and uh, raising it's

779
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:38,560
on priority as well given the
circumstances.

780
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:43,280
» Yeah. And I believe this particular lift
station has been a problem for us in the

781
01:10:41,199 --> 01:10:45,679
past. I mean, it's more than once this
has happened. So,

782
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:47,679
» I'll [clears throat] definitely look
into that as well. Thank you for

783
01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:51,840
bringing that up.
>> That's all I have.

784
01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:58,320
» I would say that on the way in tonight,
just at the creek down here, there is an

785
01:10:54,640 --> 01:11:04,400
8 foot railroad tie alongside the road
that's just barely outside the travel.

786
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:08,080
I think that was actually supposed they
anticipated it to be picked up today

787
01:11:06,239 --> 01:11:12,239
because it was a part of their debris.
Um I noticed that when I was coming back

788
01:11:10,239 --> 01:11:17,360
in too.
>> I just tag on one more with Tom with the

789
01:11:15,199 --> 01:11:20,719
lift station. There is a red light on
them. You can see whether they're on or

790
01:11:19,199 --> 01:11:26,960
off. But
>> um do we go around checking

791
01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:31,280
sump pumps? How many sump pumps are tied
into these sewer lines too?

792
01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:35,760
So, I can't speak to this directly, but
I do know that there was some testing

793
01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:40,000
that was done two years ago. Does that
sound about right? I'm looking for that.

794
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:44,239
Um, where they were trying to determine
if that and I I don't believe there were

795
01:11:42,159 --> 01:11:47,840
many found if any at all. Does that
sound right? But I'll follow I'll follow

796
01:11:46,400 --> 01:11:51,920
up on that. That's been more just
dialogue that I've heard about uh in the

797
01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:56,640
economic development role and less in
this role, but I'll do some

798
01:11:53,360 --> 01:12:01,840
investigating. I I don't know how legal
we have a stand of going in and checking

799
01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:06,239
for sure to see if someone's got the
sump pump connected into it, but

800
01:12:04,719 --> 01:12:09,440
» they did the smoke test.
>> The smoke test is exactly the test that

801
01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:13,520
was done about
>> work if you've got a check valve on your

802
01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:19,440
something.
>> I can't speak to that. Um, I would be

803
01:12:17,440 --> 01:12:23,679
happy to look into it, but I can't speak
to that right now

804
01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:29,199
» because I it's not just the lift
stations going down. I know that I

805
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:33,760
actually have a check valve on my line,
sewer line, and the pressure is so bad

806
01:12:31,120 --> 01:12:38,800
that it leaks past it a lot of times.
And it always when we have a heavy rain,

807
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:46,880
it doesn't necessarily have to have a
lot of on the street, but uh I

808
01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:51,400
I question some of my neighbors of where
their sump pumps are going to.

809
01:12:52,480 --> 01:13:00,480
Well, not only that, spoutings, too.
>> So, I'm so sorry.

810
01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:03,760
» That brings up another question, too. A
lot of neighbors spoutings. I just

811
01:13:02,159 --> 01:13:09,280
noticed this today. One of my neighbors
coming off their house down over their

812
01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:12,960
yard right towards me. So, where are
some of they going? Are they going in

813
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:17,840
this? You know,
yeah,

814
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:23,199
we could do a lot of checking.
Would it be beneficial, m mayor, do we

815
01:13:21,199 --> 01:13:30,239
have a registry or can we create a
registry of those who are

816
01:13:26,800 --> 01:13:33,920
continually impacted by the flooding so
that we might maybe have a more

817
01:13:32,159 --> 01:13:38,400
proactive
response to those?

818
01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:43,120
if you have that short answer.
>> Uh we have um the 2D model and the work

819
01:13:41,199 --> 01:13:48,400
that the Army Corps of Engineers have
done that identify the flood plane and

820
01:13:45,440 --> 01:13:53,440
the major impacted areas. Um and then of
course just our familiarity with the

821
01:13:50,239 --> 01:13:57,760
village when things flood um has helped
with that. Um and then of course there

822
01:13:56,080 --> 01:14:02,000
are several homes in the area that are
in the flood plane which is easily

823
01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:06,480
documented. Um, so there's enough
between those things there's enough

824
01:14:03,440 --> 01:14:10,800
data, but of course, um, anytime anyone
sees any significant issues. A good

825
01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:14,960
example is, um, right before the flood,
I received a call from a resident on

826
01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:18,960
Dennison saying that their storm drain
uh, backs up regularly. Before that, I I

827
01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:23,920
didn't know that or I wouldn't have
known that they that they've experienced

828
01:14:21,120 --> 01:14:27,040
that. So, I would also encourage you
when you're talking to residents and

829
01:14:25,199 --> 01:14:30,159
they're bringing up these concerns to
make sure that they call administration

830
01:14:28,480 --> 01:14:34,239
and share these things so that we can
troubleshoot them um or at least like

831
01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:38,480
you mentioned document them because we
we can't see it all.

832
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:42,800
» I'm more concerned for the elderly that
don't have a spouse

833
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:45,800
» who are unable to help themselves.
>> Absolutely.

834
01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:52,960
So, um, I'm going to go in reverse order
of how I had planned to go just because

835
01:14:51,199 --> 01:14:57,840
it ties into so much of what you've
discussed tonight.

836
01:14:54,719 --> 01:15:04,000
um the tiff conversation,
that's a very real

837
01:15:00,480 --> 01:15:10,800
opportunity for us to work on improving
our lift stations, having backup um

838
01:15:07,360 --> 01:15:16,239
pumps and developing some type of
failsafe or backup situation so that

839
01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:21,600
when number one goes down, number two is
already at the ready. Um, those are all

840
01:15:18,719 --> 01:15:25,679
things that our neighbors are able to
use that TIFF funding for right now to

841
01:15:24,080 --> 01:15:30,800
make sure that we they don't have those
issues. Um, I know it's a hard

842
01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:35,520
conversation, but I really do feel like
voters are being crystal clear about

843
01:15:33,199 --> 01:15:39,920
they do not want to pay one penny more
of real estate taxes. So, these taxes

844
01:15:38,239 --> 01:15:48,560
that are being collected, we need to use
them effectively. Um also I have not

845
01:15:43,679 --> 01:15:53,679
seen our um fire district go without um
whereas it's very clear we are very

846
01:15:50,480 --> 01:15:57,760
behind on paving right and we're behind
on addressing the inflow and

847
01:15:55,679 --> 01:16:04,159
infiltration of storm water into our
sewer system. So I don't like pitting

848
01:16:01,760 --> 01:16:09,520
these services against once one another,
but we are spinning plates. And so we

849
01:16:07,679 --> 01:16:15,360
need to pay attention to the plates that
are slowing down tragically

850
01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:20,000
um to the point where it's unsustainable
for our very residents.

851
01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:24,400
Uh I also want to say about common
sense. Someone said something about it's

852
01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:29,840
common sense to not blow grass into the
street. You're absolutely right. Unless

853
01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:33,520
you're a first-time home homeowner,
unless you're a first-time renter or

854
01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:39,440
you've never had to mow your own grass
before, um our kind words to our

855
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:43,520
neighbors to let them know, hey, did you
know that that's dangerous for

856
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:48,640
motorcycles and it ends up in our storm
water? Um those don't have to be super

857
01:16:46,800 --> 01:16:52,239
uncomfortable conversations. We can all
be part of that solution. So, keep that

858
01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:57,920
in mind if the opportunity presents
itself.

859
01:16:54,000 --> 01:17:03,360
Um, we have residents who literally had
standing water in their home last week

860
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:10,000
and we have residents who the water came
so high it destroyed their HVAC uh duct

861
01:17:07,199 --> 01:17:16,400
work. We have people who lost their AC
and heating units. Um, so while we have

862
01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:21,199
survived the immediate, we do have
people that have very real needs right

863
01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:25,040
now. Um, if you know of somebody who's
looking for a way to connect and be

864
01:17:22,800 --> 01:17:30,480
meaningful, there are lots of volunteer
opportunities. You need only reach out

865
01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:36,800
to um, village administrator Meisner or
the churches or the uh, Caitlyn. Um, we

866
01:17:34,960 --> 01:17:40,880
have lots of places to reach out. So,
please, if somebody says they haven't

867
01:17:38,239 --> 01:17:45,520
found a way to to help, please connect
them with one of us.

868
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:49,440
Um,
last week, ironically, I spent the

869
01:17:47,840 --> 01:17:54,880
beginning of the week at the One Water
Conference. And so, we were talking

870
01:17:51,920 --> 01:18:00,800
about um treating water so it's
drinkable, treating um wastewater so it

871
01:17:58,719 --> 01:18:06,719
can be reclaimed, and also dealing with
storm water. There were some amazing

872
01:18:03,679 --> 01:18:11,920
sessions. I think part of my staff was
uh concerned because when I came home I

873
01:18:09,199 --> 01:18:20,000
wrote an opus about all the things I
want to do um to make our water sewer

874
01:18:15,440 --> 01:18:25,520
rates more fair. Um those who use a lot
require a lot of our services. Those who

875
01:18:22,719 --> 01:18:30,159
have peaks, right, they're using much
much more in the summer and not very

876
01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:36,640
much in the fall. We still have to
maintain the same level of uh competency

877
01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:42,320
and ability to provide that all year
round. I can't, you know, uh send half

878
01:18:39,920 --> 01:18:47,360
my staff home for, you know, for six
months because we don't have as much

879
01:18:44,480 --> 01:18:52,239
need as much capacity. Um I'm saying
that because I want us to be more

880
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:57,040
aggressive about making sure that those
who use the most water pay the most for

881
01:18:54,880 --> 01:19:02,400
water and that our residents aren't
carrying that burden. Um, now the hard

882
01:19:00,239 --> 01:19:07,760
part about that is it's not going to be
a simple mathematical model like we have

883
01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:11,679
right now. So I want us to be prepared
to have some tough conversations about

884
01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:16,719
what some of that might look like. But
remember, even a 1% change in your

885
01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:20,960
trajectory in the long run makes a huge
difference for these budgets. And so it

886
01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:27,199
will empower us to do some of this work
that we need to be able to do.

887
01:19:24,480 --> 01:19:32,560
I want to say that I was um delighted to
receive phone calls from um Troy

888
01:19:30,239 --> 01:19:38,640
Balderson. We also uh received phone
calls from uh Bernie Mareno. We received

889
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:44,320
phone calls from uh Senator Schaefer and
Representative Miller in the Ohio level

890
01:19:41,199 --> 01:19:48,480
calling with very clear communications
of if there are things that we can be

891
01:19:46,159 --> 01:19:53,520
doing at the state level to help
residents, please let us know. So, if

892
01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:58,400
you know of anyone who is permanently
displaced or will be displaced from

893
01:19:55,840 --> 01:20:02,080
their home for weeks, we really need to
know that because we need to communicate

894
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:07,840
it up so that they can set funding
aside.

895
01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:14,320
I want to thank my team. Um, this last
week was really intense. Um, I can't

896
01:20:11,120 --> 01:20:20,800
believe I didn't yell at anybody.
I was so tired. Oh my goodness. Maybe

897
01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:26,320
it's because Yeah. Okay. Anyway, so
um I'm just really really proud to work

898
01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:29,920
with a team uh that I have and I really
appreciate people just saying, you know

899
01:20:28,320 --> 01:20:32,800
what, I'm gonna work night shift because
that's going to be better for my team.

900
01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:38,400
I'm going to do this. I'm going to do
that. Um every single person uh that I

901
01:20:36,159 --> 01:20:45,360
asked, many people I didn't even have to
ask anything. So, thank you. Um and I am

902
01:20:43,360 --> 01:20:50,080
taking a vacation. You may want to mark
your calendars. Uh September 1st through

903
01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:54,000
8th I will be away. If we have something
scheduled we need to reschedu but I

904
01:20:52,640 --> 01:21:00,080
think you can all agree I probably need
a timeout. Um I want to second uh

905
01:20:57,679 --> 01:21:03,920
Britney's comment about OML. I really do
hope folks will take advantage even if

906
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:07,040
it's just for a day. I'd love to see
your faces there. I'd love to be able to

907
01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:10,640
introduce you to other folks who are
doing the work that you're doing so you

908
01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:19,600
can steal their great ideas and bring
them home for us. And then um

909
01:21:15,840 --> 01:21:25,840
bikes, ebikes and bikes. So I want to
say that we um have been talking and

910
01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:32,320
thinking a lot about bikes and cats and
these things, right? Um but our legal

911
01:21:29,120 --> 01:21:37,600
team has been absolutely
focused, thank goodness, on um the Ohio

912
01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:41,920
Supreme Court case, for which I'm very
thankful. He keeps his head down, but

913
01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:46,640
it's true. Um, I know he's been working
very hard on that. So, a little grace on

914
01:21:44,080 --> 01:21:52,159
some of the legislation. I sure would
appreciate that for Solicer Rose. Um,

915
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:55,920
but we will get to these things. Um,
please don't feel that we're not paying

916
01:21:54,080 --> 01:22:01,480
attention to them. We just need a little
more time. And that is my update.

917
01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:10,360
We have this time as a second goound for
visitor comments. Any visitor comments?

918
01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:10,360
Okay.

919
01:22:10,480 --> 01:22:16,000
Unless otherwise noted, it's understood
that council members have reviewed the

920
01:22:13,760 --> 01:22:19,000
expense report provided and have no
questions.

921
01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:25,520
Just want to draw your attention to the
meeting and event schedule this coming

922
01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:28,960
Sunday at 7 p.m. It's the art and music
miniseries. Can you tell us details?

923
01:22:27,679 --> 01:22:32,480
» Dueling pianos.
>> Oh yeah, they had to cancel. They were

924
01:22:30,639 --> 01:22:35,760
on their first one. They were the first
one we had scheduled. So they're excited

925
01:22:34,080 --> 01:22:40,239
to be back in August.
>> Fantastic. Um we will be closed

926
01:22:38,400 --> 01:22:46,239
obviously on Labor Day. So the council
meeting has been moved to the adjacent

927
01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:50,000
Tuesday. Uh then we get into the pie
festival. What is this like fifth year?

928
01:22:49,440 --> 01:22:56,159
» Yes.
>> Yeah. The fifth one.

929
01:22:52,080 --> 01:23:00,400
» Um and I'm sure there are plenty of
opportunities to volunteer. If you have

930
01:22:58,159 --> 01:23:05,199
not yet def, you know, identified ways
to do that, please do so. Uh and then we

931
01:23:03,440 --> 01:23:09,840
get back into planning and zoning,
council meetings and combined council

932
01:23:08,159 --> 01:23:15,280
committees.
Again, that combined council committees

933
01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:22,639
is actually a work session.
So, um yeah, any other good of the order

934
01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:26,960
comments or anything? I would like to
say it's good to see people show up

935
01:23:24,719 --> 01:23:32,320
tonight and
express their concerns other than water

936
01:23:30,239 --> 01:23:38,960
and I just appreciate people getting
involved and caring about this.

937
01:23:37,520 --> 01:23:46,199
That's it. Thank you.
>> Thank you.

938
01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:46,199
» Okay. I am seeking a motion to adjourn.

939
01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:55,600
I have a motion from council member
Marietta and a second from council

940
01:23:52,800 --> 01:23:57,679

>> Yes.

941
01:23:57,280 --> 01:23:59,280
